ah ah ah, the state of the news line from berlin donald trump's lawyer is negotiate the terms of his arrest after a grand jury and new york votes to indict him. the 1st time this that ever happened to a former us president and threatened to amend the race for the white house next year, also on the program with an find charges. evans gosh

convention. the wall street journal is the 1st american reporter to be held for espionage since the cold war and the ukrainian town of boucher a year after its liberation from russian troops and the horror of alleged warcraft . you can see for yourself, these are civilian. this one was carrying potatoes and snipers shocked them on the head. out of boredom, quote, struggles to come to terms with indiscriminate killings that shocked the world. war crimes prosecutors piece together. evidence to name and try the perpetrators. ah, america for like it's good to have you with us. donald trump's lawyer said they will vigorously fight charges against their client in the 1st criminal case ever

against a former us president. trump has been indicted by a grand jury in new york, while the exact charges are a part of the sealed indictment. it's known. they're linked to an alleged hush money payment to a porn star. before the 2016 presidential election. it's understood, trump could turn himself in early next week. he's running to regain the white house in 2024. donald trump effect to become the 1st u. s. president ever to face criminal charges. the grant duty dos by the manhattan district attorney's office spent weeks looking into $130000.00 payment meet to warn act ostomy. daniels, trump reportedly beat the thumb during the 2016 presidential campaign, one to keep daniel quite about a sexual encounter they had years ago, has act, jumped via monkey denies the verification. witnesses what the exact charges he will

faith have not yet been made. public is too early to speculate what type of funds trump would get if he were convicted by a new york jury. the judge would likely based it on the evidence that was presented at trial, whether trump testified, whether he perjured himself donald trump faced, he's innocent, and has caused the indictment of political persecution. his lawyer see they will vigorously fight any charges. the proceedings i bound to shake up the 2020 for presidential with the u. s. constitution does country quite a clean criminal record for someone to become president. but it would be extraordinary for someone under indictment or convicted of a felony to become a presidential candidate. prosecutor say that in contact with john floyers to arrange that ended and is expected to turn himself in early next week on

the day with the specific charge of the meet public bring in david dunny the professor for international politics at the university of birmingham, mr. dunn, good to see you. donald trump has called his indictment, political persecution, and election interference at the highest level in history. what's your take on the case? well, these are high stakes or actions by the new york, a legal team in that it could backfire in terms of the way in which trump was perceived by his base. and by a lot of americans who, who will agree with, with trump, that this is an extraordinary charge to be brought 7 years after the alleged events, when perhaps other issues would be more important for them to focus on. he certainly trying to milk it for all it's worth politically at when these charges

refers rumored, you raise one and a half a 1000000 pounds overnight in supporters are flocking to his cause. and so for his base, this will be that political persecution for the wider public, the all bemused and watching with interest. he is running for president again. how do you expect the indictment to affect the race for the white house in 2024? well up, trump loves to be in the headlines and this guarantees him more air time. he will get more support, more financial support. and he is, he is against the trend. it was the idea of us being a political persecution of him. and he's using that to actually air royal up that base who see him is the only way that they can challenge the established way. things are done in washington and for the wider public. i imagine they see this as more of the same as sallied and a disreputable,

or individual who actually has many things hanging over him and who they want to draw line under and move forward at the midterm elections and candidates back by trump lost by a margin of about 20 percent compared to those who didn't get trumps endorsement. so the white republicans is tired of trump, but his base or want more of him. so the irony of this is that it makes it more unlikely that he will get the nomination for the republican party, but less likely that he will win. but we will see her again that the earth that the shenanigans of a trump has personality. his, his approach to politics as opposed to life playing out over the, the remainder debt. yes, and indeed of course, this is only one of 4 and air possible indictments. the other ones are more serious . are the ones, the ones are more likely that will lead to jail time if, if they were approved for it for him to have

a tried to overturn the election in georgia or the, the alleged or activities of him supporting the insurrection on january 6th. and of course they also the stealing and concealing the documents at moral argo, when he actually lied, the allegedly, that to the, the air national archives of about what he had and where it was and the like. so there are many aspects of his legal jeopardy that will play out. it's not just a stormy daniels, in fact, all this is the 1st one to come to court. and so on. weight is the least serious. and that is the, the attempt to subvert that. the democratic process in this is marginal compared to the attempts allegedly that he did for the other cases that he faces. so what we're going to see more trump, or indictments more, wanna jump in there for a 2nd. we don't have much time, but i do want to ask you this. if we see a sitting president getting convicted, couldn't pardon himself? no, he can't pardon himself and that the president here is as richard nixon or who may

have been indicted, had he not been pardoned by his vice president, gerald ford. but but the air, despite what a trunk might think, he hasn't got the power to pardon himself and. and therefore if he is indicted one office, the only option there is for it for the the, this, the slate to be cleared. why this, the sitting a vice president, whether that happens or not, of course is another matter entirely, but we're long way ahead or away from that. he may well be indicted and, and, or email me will lose the election. or if indeed he even gets an exactly rob, exactly. and looking into the crescent father, david donnelly, university of birmingham, thank you so much. now, the white house has condemned the arrest of an american journalist in russia and spine charges. russia security service the f as b accuses evan gross coverage of trying to obtain classified information is pleaded not guilty and his employer, the wall street journal, is remaining his immediate release. the 1st time in american reporter has been

detained and russia as an alleged spies since the cold war. washington is advising us citizens to leave gods at a moscow court, bundled even gush coverage out of the building. following his brief appearance, the 31 year old pleaded not guilty to spying charges, but exactly what he's alleged to have done remains unclear. his lawyer says he wasn't even allowed in the courtroom. remodeled with the wrong. i can't say anything because i haven't seen the charges filed against them. the old i'm convinced that my client could only of actor, legal, and only due to gush coverage was arrested hundreds of kilometers away from moscow . in the city of your catherine burg, he's believe to have been working on a story about local attitudes to the war in ukraine. but russian authorities claim gush greevich was acting on behalf of the us to access state secrets,

but he greets him. janelle is under the guise of journalistic activities, a journalistic visa and accreditation. judging by the investigative measures taken against him, he was engaged in completely different activities also. ah, so surely in lloyd's eagerness to gush coverage has been working in russia as a journalist since 2017. he's been with the wall street journal for just over a year, and the piper has been quick to condemn his wrist. in a statement they demanded his immediate release. other journalists also expressing the grave concerns. it has a chilling effect on frying journalist, especially western journalist. we try to inform international community international, public opinion about the war and about what's going on in russia. gosh,

give it is the highest profile american arrested in russia since basketball. a brittany greiner, who spent 10 months in jail on drugs charges for now, he will spend the next 2 months here in a pre trial detention center. his silence a 3rd, the blow to dwindling media freedoms and russia. that's where you are moscow bureau chief, your shadow has been reporting from riga after russian authorities shut down d w. moscow. office yury during your time in moscow. you actually worked with evan . gosh kevin, watching, he tells about him. oh, i worked with the garage, kabbage write live relatively little. we had contact during the protestant capero, excuse the russian, far east region. but i know a great many colleagues who know very well, even as an extremely professional, passionate reporter who speaks perfect, russian, who has written many investigative reports for various western media, who is very nice, very friendly as

a funny guy as well. he stayed in moscow after the start of the war and apparently wanted to report that this time on the russian private army wagner group, until they are too good of the russians to this boy, ukraine. what happens next and what could crush of its fate? even guess cabbage will be in custody in moscow until the end of may even investigation comes to the conclusion that he was actually spying any state secrets he could face between 10 and 20 years in prison. and the question is, nicole, whether the russians would exchange garish coverage for one of their people in jail in the west. and that's why some human rights activists in russia called the arrest a hostage taking it's possible, given the history of past prisoner exchanges or the last one was of the us basketball. star greiner, who was released in exchange with the convicted thrashing arms dealer. and there are still some other russians who could be considered at what have reactions to his

arrest been in russia. what is remarkable is that even gush cabbage is an american . and the fact that both of these spokeswoman for the minister of foreign affairs to her always saw her just in our report and to the kremlin spokesman midship s. golf short a categorical reactions yesterday, both end or indirectly, claiming that the evangelical which was rightly arrested. these reactions show that the case may be at the highest level approved in the kremlin, and that that's a bad sign for all of the others report us. no, normally the so called press office there is responsible for supporting for reporters, especially in their work with the authorities instead as a horrible claim to that guest which had done illegal things under the protection of his presentation. and now this is widely being read as intimidation tactics. where does it mean for the work of foreign journalists and russia?

well, i think his arrest outside of moscow is significant. apart from the fact that there are some military factors in the euro region where yvonne was researching as this could happen in early part of russia, because of course, foreign journalists travel around the country. and of course, there are plenty of factories in russia that are more or less related to the defense industry. i do have travel a lot through russia, one reporting for the w mosque office and knew that i've been more than taught. and it started as a hotel where i checked in as a foreigner. sometimes i saw a car following my team while shooting would also happened is the to the people i interviewed war later, questioned by the police. and i think this is a divorce, worst consequence over his, a garage for which arrest colleagues in russia will find that even more difficult to talk to the people because the will be afraid of for accusing working with alleged spies. very interesting and sad theory, rossetto d. w 's, moscow. purity of currently reporting from reagan. thank you.

your cranium, president vladimir, the landscape as as country will never forgive those responsible for the horrors inflicted on boucher and ukrainian town is marking a year now from its liberation after 5 weeks under russian control where ukrainian force is found about 30 kilometers from central. keith was a trail of devastation, an evidence of possible war crimes. the images of civilian bodies strewn across the infamous jablonsky street and particular reverberated around the world. 12 months later, however, the move to hold those responsible to account as far from finished. now a warning that this next report contains graphic images. some yours might find disturbing. this is boot chairs, jablonsky street, a peaceful, unassuming place. and this is how it looked after the russians fled. one year ago. the bodies of civilians less to wrought on the road surrounded by shopping.

that was never delivered. some with the hands bound. okay. and then the boom. you can see it for yourself. these are civilians are intimate. this one was carrying potatoes when you and snipers shocked them all in the head, out of boredom. wall. how could this happen? how could this happen? to understand how this quiet, residential street turned into hell. you 1st have to meet the people who lived, died and survived. here. currently were men like me kilo roman jak, seen here trying to keep warm in the early days of the rush in occupation. not long after this video, he joined his nieces boyfriend who wanted to check up on his own father. mckayla never came home last year when the family found his body

weeks later. you who lives in we were citing, and then the shooting started. we didn't see from where luck you want to see you. then there's all are abram off on a welder who loved football. and we're all hero guilty. his wife irina describes how russian soldiers tonda up there, now destroyed home, and then ordered allah away. earlier, you know, wouldn't. so i thought, where is ali? i went outside and i saw he was lying than willy. they took him around the corner and put him on his knees and shot him in the head a little. elko on you was, i stood next to him, luckily and then fell to my knees. luasa lester and the russians were sitting across the street number will use nosy. neighbor vladimir brought chang co, was returning a borrowed bike when he was killed. a relative says that russian marksman fired

their guns with impunity. was a brack, his neighbor wanted to take him away and marry him in the yard like so. his clothes wouldn't be left lying on the street with a sniper. where did the neighbor in the shoulder? hopefully the bullet went straight through him honestly and he fled, even in the days after the liberation bodies were discovered in sailors and mass graves to some 10 percent of the population killed and al monuv long reign of terror. great president vladimir cholenski visited the town. his face edged with anguish at the mazda. these are war crimes, and this will be recognised as genocide by the world in order to prosecute war crimes, ukrainian, and international investigators must fashion identify the culprit. never mind arrest them. a painstaking task that may never succeed. for nadia whose

daughter was killed, justice will be served one way or another woman. don't she used to be nice and clean, put in and that was order. everyone lived well. then these animals came and in one month they turned it into i don't know what may god punish them for the rest of their lives. peoples goes to the people of butcher may have begun to recover, but they nor the world will ever forget when we can now speak to the w. special correspondent. i abraham. she's here in the studio with me. i a you were in boucher last month. what did you see, what did you hear? what did people tell you about the trauma that they've lived there? i mean, it's, it, i really got the impression that the people there were still very much so dealing with the scars of what happened to them under russian occupation. i mean,

just to give you an idea of what kind of place butcher was before started. i mean, the before the war started, this is a residential suburb about 30 minute drive outside of kia. it's a place where people moved to start families. and you know, young professionals are really kind of lovely place before the war. and you know, it just so happened that geography dictated that it was exactly on the trail of russian soldiers who were invading from belarus on their way to cave. and that, you know, changed the, the town, the suburb a completely, i mean i met a man there who had actually escaped the war in eastern ukraine. that the fighting that started there in 2014, moved with his family to butcher and, and chose it particularly for that reason for being a place that he could settle, that he could come with his family. and unfortunately, as they were trying to escape russian occupation a couple of days after russian troops arrived there, he la his entire,

his entire family. and when i went to see him there, i mean he, you know, he's, he's, he's still very much living with that memory the home that he had bought for them for his family in butcher, untouched. but like a lot of people in boucher who you know, a lot of the civilians who had this horrible thing happened to them. their hope now is that with the investigations these a legit war crime accusations they can get some justice and they can perhaps see yeah, some kind of justice for what, what happened to them. and that's really the hope that they're holding on to butcher has become a symbol of russian atrocities. in this war, we've seen many politicians from abroad also come and tour the town, see what was done there. know what is being done to help the people rebuild and recover from this unbelievable thing that they had to live through. or we have to also say that, you know, in addition to having to do with these atrocities, you know, what i saw was also a lot of rebuilding in boucher. there was

a lot of construction work. a lot of attempts to bring back, you know, life there, i met with the deputy mayor of butcher when i was there and she said, you know, nobody really wants to live in a town known for tragedy. that's, that's, that's how she put it. and that's why she said, we need the help. they're getting a lot of help from a charities compared to compared to other parts of ukraine that have also been destroyed to rebuild these these houses and to bring back life. and you know what? i saw him and i visited, there should have been late february and the town was really sort of on the men and you did feel that life was slowly trying to come back. but as also one, a volunteer that i met there said, you know, we want to bounce back, but we, we don't want to forget what happened here. and it's important that we find a way to remember this tragedy together and, and for the world to not never forget really what happened in boucher. yeah. you talk about rebuilding, but the war is still raging on. we talk a lot about the eastern front, but there's air strikes in and around keys almost every day. how present is,

is that reality that the acute war happening right now in boucher? i mean, that's kind of the, the tricky thing about about being in the capital, right? because the, you know, the air defense systems, you know, the capital key of and it's running, which would include butcher, the air defense system work to a very, very large extent. i mean you have sirens, air retirements pretty much every day, but the likelihood that a building gets struck or a civilian entity gets struck is, is quite low compared to what we're seeing in the east or even other parts of the country. but at the same time, it happens sometimes, right? and so it's a reminder that nowhere really is safe. but my impression, you know, having spent a couple of weeks in ukraine is that people there have have found a way to deal with it. and pretty much, you know, they're just going on with their lives and that's just one risk that they have to calculate into it. it only is special correspondent abraham. thank you so much for all the challenges posed by russia's invasion of ukraine also took center

stage during a visit of britain's king charles to germany. he praised international cooperation in the face of the aggression when he addressed the german parliament on thursday, becoming the 1st sitting monarch ever to speak in the bonus tag. the king also made a trip to military unit and visited an organic dairy farm and a cheese maker. here's a look at day 2 of us, 3 davis at ah, standing ovations for the king alternating between german and english britons charles the 3rd praised the british german friendship in a historic speech that frequently drew laughter from lawmakers. just look, julie. i jumped as reality, of course there is also rivalry others on. i'm thinking in particular of the encounters between our football teams who spoke

with that in mind. it was very special that the english women's soccer team, the lie nurses, became european champions by beating germany items z gig and deutschland are route for most of route but he also came with a serious political message. speaking of reconciliation and the need to learn from the past with europe, security once again threatened by russia's war of aggression against ukraine is barrios develop technicians took the world, has not passively stood by instant shooting, even as we abhor the hauling scenes of destruction. we can take heart from our unity in defense of ukraine, of peace and freedom, the title, craner disobedience to fright. chas then went on to

visit some of the ukrainians who have taken refuge in germany since rushes invasion and highlighted how both germany and the u. k. are providing support side by side also, militarily, that was the message of his visit to join german, british military unit, outside of berlin. and last but not least at this eco village, charles got his hands down and dirty, helping to make cheese and discuss organic farming. since long before he became britain, sovereign environmental issues have been at the heart of his agenda. his 1st trip abroad, as britons monarch, as seen as an effort to reset britain's relations with the european union post rex it self power through photo ops. so far it looks like it has been a piece of cake for charles. thank you. now for it to the point with panel is
